THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE,

We have before US the President 8
message, but it is too late to make
copious extracts. He goes to the
point at once and discusses the sur
plus. He handles the subject with a
statesman's grip. He tells Congress
in plain English that it ought to stop
its time-killing, equivocating policy,
and relieve the people. He says:
ave are not dealing with a theory,
reduction of the tariff on raw material
FIRST. He fully recognizes the crisis
and shows Congress how to meet it.
So wise, 50 able, 80 brave a public
document we have never read.
While he believes II, point Of time,
the reduction of the tariff should pre-
cede that of the internal revenue,
thereby conflicting with the opinions
of North Carolina, Virginia and Ken
lucky, sti1l we honor and admire him
for his outspoken bravery. He has
proposed plan to relieve the people
at once and he should be honored for
what he has done, not blamed for his
method Of doing it.
Brother Burkhead, Of the Durham
Plant remarked after reading it:
"Well, he must have been reading the
Plants editorials-he agrees with us
exactly" We believe he also agrees
with the majority Of the people and
the papers Of North Carolina as well
as with the Plant, and that they will
say so after reading his message.

tire state. He was known and loved
in almost every village and hamlet
throughout North Carolina and there
are friends from the mountains to the
sea coast who grieve for his loss.
This writer knew him to love him
We considered him type of grand.
manly character. He spoke what he
believed the right on all occasions,
without fear and without favor.
His was character so strong, so
nobly formed, that Duty over rode all
thought Of sell. With him Right was
above Might. and a clear conscience
above the plaudits of a multitude.
We do not believe We have ever
known more fearless man and at the
same time a warmer heart. That
trite saying Death loves a shining
mark was indeed true in his case, or
as Horace beautifully expresses it,
The lightning, spariug the humble
shrub creeping on the ground, rives
the majestic oak, towering to the
skies"
Apart from his deep piety and I'M
doubted religion, he was a man whom
the world could not help but admire,
so strong, so powerful. We believe
the best epitaph and the most express
i've would be: "IHis was NAN" and
yet it scarcely expresses all of what
DIR. Burkhead was.
He was a true Christian and as such
we believe his is the reward "that
pasaeth all human understanding"
That thought relieves the sorrow and
dulIs the pang that all his friends
must feel in thinking of 50 grand a
life so suddenly ended.

PURITY IN POLITICS,

Now they VS. gone and nominated
that blather-skite jim Skies and |
don't believe he's worthy of my vote
or anybody else's'' is the remark we
very frequently hear good, honest
men make after convention, and then
they complain and rail at the party
when, if they only knew it, THEY aid
ed Jim Skies 10 his position by stay
ing away from the caucus. Good souls,
they faint going to have anything to
do with politics. oh no, they are go
ing to attend to their merchandise, or
farming, or preaching and let Jim
Skies friends capture the convention,
so they can have the comfort of know
ing that their skirts are free from the
conta mination of political caueuses,
falling to remember that just such as
they are the ones who should put pol
tiles on respectable plane Here in
North Carolina, (thani Heaven, we
generally have respectable candidates
from both sides, but how much longer
can this be said
In New York, not great while
ago, there were two candidates who
came before a primary-0ne was a
christian gentleman, the other bar
room hummer, with red nose and
big striped pants. The convention
hesitated long between the two. Fin
ally d ward politician arose and an
nounced that if the red-nosed gentle
man were nominated there were two
hundred and fifty gamblers in the
city who would support him and
spend money on the election. The
hummer was nominated with loud
huzzah! Such a scene, such an act,
was disgrace and stigma -upon
whom? Certainly not upon the round
abouts and toughs, "the world loves
its own" but upon those decent re-
spectacle men who DIDN'T go to the
convention. They had rather see
red nosed bully lead the ticket than to
soil their precious skirts in the mud
OF political meeting opposing him.
, We haven't got quite that low in
North Carolina yet, but we have had
men nominated because it would flat
Ter our worst element. This is a mis-
take. 1t won't do to suppose because
man is respectable that he will vote
for any man whatever his character,
simply because he happens to be nom
mated by his party, Whatever it be.
We must recognize the best element in
our conventions and to do this that
best element must attend the primar.
les and see that honest, reliable men
are sent to the nominating convent
ions to represent them. Next year we
aregoing to have warm time of it.
We will need the most perfect mir
rors of integrity" we've got in our
party on the ticket, and the way
to get them is for every good
citizen to take part in the
primaries. Organize, go to work, re-
member that the toga of citizenship
imposes other duties besides casting
your vote on election day. Go to the
primaries, put in solid men and keep
out Jim Skies.
